ECE 22.06 tells you a helmet met the minimum.

But it is the only independent, publicly funded comparison of helmets sold in Europe, and it is a better guide than any manufacturer's own literature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eType\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eShell\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWeight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRRP\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"is-this\"\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFF908 Strobe II\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFlip-up (P\/J)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKPA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1700 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003efrom 139 €\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFF902 Scope II\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFlip-up (P\/J)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHPTT\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1750 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003efrom 179 €\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFF906 Advant\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFlip-up (P\/J)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKPA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1750 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003efrom 299 €\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFF901 Advant X\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFlip-up (P\/J)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHPFC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1600 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003efrom 399 €\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFF901 Advant X Carbon\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFlip-up (P\/J)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCarbon 6K\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1550 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003efrom 469 €\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout the Lux Matt Black Pink graphic\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePink is a harder pigment than it looks. Most pinks are built from red with white added, which is why they go chalky under a matt lacquer and fade faster than any other colour under ultraviolet. The Lux pattern works around that by using pink as line work rather than as area fill: thin, high-contrast strokes on a matt black ground, where the eye reads the contrast rather than the saturation. That keeps it looking deliberate rather than washed out, and it means the graphic ages far better than a pink-panelled helmet would. On the bike it is genuinely distinctive without being loud, and against the black base it stays visible at the angles that matter — from the side and the three-quarter view a driver actually gets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThree shells, and what KPA actually is\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe size range runs XS to 3XL on \u003cstrong\u003ethree shells\u003c\/strong\u003e. Weight is the consequence people feel first: a small rider in a one-shell helmet carries the same outer shell as a large one and pays for it in grams on the neck all day. Here an XS wears a shell built for XS and S. The break points are XS–S, M–L and XL–3XL, and if you sit at the top of a group the helmet will feel closest to its intended fit, because that size is the one the shell was drawn around.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eNinety degrees, and how the chin bar locks\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere the bar sits when open changes how the helmet behaves. Ninety degrees puts it at the highest point of the shell, so the mass moves up and slightly forward and an open Strobe II feels more top-heavy at a standstill than a closed one. That is geometry rather than a fault, and it is common to almost every flip-up made. It is also the practical reason to close it before setting off rather than after.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat ECE 22.06 and the P\/J label mean\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo letters and a number, both worth understanding. \u003cstrong\u003e22.06\u003c\/strong\u003e is the current standard: up to eighteen impact sites where its predecessor used five, multiple speeds, and rotational acceleration measured for the first time. \u003cstrong\u003eP\/J\u003c\/strong\u003e is the dual homologation: tested as a protective full-face and, separately, as a jet with the bar raised. On a helmet designed to be worn both ways, having only one of those would be a real gap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTwin Visor, sun visor — and the Pinlock that is not in the box\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWorth knowing before you order a spare sun visor: this helmet went through a parts change. Helmets built \u003cstrong\u003efrom March 2024\u003c\/strong\u003e use one internal shade; earlier ones use a different, older part shared with the FF800 and FF808. They are not interchangeable, and the section on spares further down this page has both numbers. Check the production date on the label inside the chin strap before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAir, the breath deflector and the elastic-band liner\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe exhaust port is the half of the ventilation nobody thinks about and the half that makes the rest work. Air does not flow through a helmet because the front vents are open — it flows because the low-pressure area behind the shell pulls it out at the back. Block or lose the rear vent and the crown intake stops doing much, which is why a helmet missing its exhaust cover feels stuffier rather than airier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e1700 grams, no emergency release, and the rest of the honest list\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat you are giving up at a hundred and thirty-nine euros, listed plainly. There is no emergency release system. There is no anti-fog insert in the box, only a visor prepared for one. The chin bar stops at ninety degrees. And the helmet weighs 1700 g, which is light for a flip-up and heavy for a helmet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat you are not giving up is more interesting: three shells, a drop-down sun visor, a breath deflector, a full spare-parts programme and an independently verified four-star crash rating. That combination at this price is the reason this helmet is worth a page this long.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhen something wears out\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe chin vent is the one to keep a spare of if you keep a spare of anything. It is mounted on the chin bar, so it travels every time the helmet is opened and takes more handling than any other component on the shell. It is also the vent that clears a misted visor, which makes it the one you will miss soonest if it breaks in November.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIn the box\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLS2 FF908 Strobe II helmet — Lux Matt Black Pink\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarrying bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReflective stickers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🔵 No Pinlock® insert — the visor is prepared for one (DKS520), sold separately\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eModel\u003c\/em\u003e — LS2 FF908 Strobe II\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003ePart number\u003c\/em\u003e — 569082145\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eColour\u003c\/em\u003e — Lux Matt Black Pink — Lux graphic, matt with pink\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eHomologation\u003c\/em\u003e — ECE 22.06, dual P\/J (protective and jet)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eSafety rating\u003c\/em\u003e — SHARP 4 of 5 stars (tested August 2026, ECE 22.06); chin bar fully locked in 37 % of impacts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eHelmet type\u003c\/em\u003e — Flip-up \/ modular, chin bar raising 90° with locking system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eShell\u003c\/em\u003e — KPA (Kinetic Polymer Alloy), three shell sizes (XS–S \/ M–L \/ XL–3XL)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eWeight\u003c\/em\u003e — 1700 g (±50 g)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eSizes\u003c\/em\u003e — XS to 3XL (seven sizes)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eAnti-fog\u003c\/em\u003e — prepared for Pinlock® 70 MaxVision™ (DKS520) — insert NOT supplied\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eVisor\u003c\/em\u003e — Twin Visor System, scratch-resistant, UV-stable, quick-release\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eSun visor\u003c\/em\u003e — integrated, tinted, drop-down\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eImpact liner\u003c\/em\u003e — multi-density EPS with moulded ventilation channels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eRetention\u003c\/em\u003e — micrometric ratchet buckle, reinforced chin strap, chin bar lock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eEmergency release\u003c\/em\u003e — not fitted on this model\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eVentilation\u003c\/em\u003e — chin intake, top intake, rear exhaust port, breath deflector\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eLiner\u003c\/em\u003e — 3D laser-cut, elastic-band crown, hypoallergenic, breathable, removable and washable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eIntercom\u003c\/em\u003e — prepared for the current LS2 Bluetooth system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eServiceability\u003c\/em\u003e — complete chin bar available as a spare part in every one of the twelve colourways\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"LS2","offers":[{"title":"XS \/ Lux – Matt Black\/Pink","offer_id":53597223846154,"sku":"569082145_XS","price":21940.0,"currency_code":"ETB","in_stock":true},{"title":"S \/ Lux – Matt Black\/Pink","offer_id":53597223878922,"sku":"569082145_S","price":21940.0,"currency_code":"ETB","in_stock":true},{"title":"M \/ Lux – Matt Black\/Pink","offer_id":53597223911690,"sku":"569082145_M","price":21940.0,"currency_code":"ETB","in_stock":true},{"title":"L \/ Lux – Matt Black\/Pink","offer_id":53597223944458,"sku":"569082145_L","price":21940.0,"currency_code":"ETB","in_stock":true},{"title":"XL \/ Lux – Matt Black\/Pink","offer_id":53597223977226,"sku":"569082145_XL","price":21940.0,"currency_code":"ETB","in_stock":true},{"title":"XXL \/ Lux – Matt Black\/Pink","offer_id":53597224009994,"sku":"569082145_XXL","price":21940.0,"currency_code":"ETB","in_stock":true},{"title":"XXXL \/ Lux – Matt Black\/Pink","offer_id":53597224042762,"sku":"569082145_XXXL","price":21940.0,"currency_code":"ETB","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/569082145_01.png?v=1788165126","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/en-et\/products\/ls2-ff908-strobe-ii-lux-matt-black-pink-helmet","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
